Ep. 1: An Undocumented Student

Darwin Velasquez is a senior at the University of San Francisco and originally from El Salvador. His family left El Salvador when Darwin was 12, fleeing gang violence. Darwin is one of the 860,000 people using the Obama-issued Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) to stay in the US.

Darwin’s future in the US now depends on President Trump. President Trump campaigned on retracting DACA, but has since softened his tone towards DACA recipients. Darwin is still unsure of what he will do when he graduates in December.
